We are in the process of developing a series of Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans (LCWIPs) for the principal towns in the county.
Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans are a long-term strategic approach to identifying cycling and walking improvements at a local level.

We intend to develop a Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan for each of the principal towns in the county. The aim of these is to identify the main cycle and walking improvements in a town to enable the council to bid for government funding and/or to secure funding contributions from developers. There is currently no government funding allocated for the implementation of Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans. However, if funding becomes available from the government, we will have a series of bid ready projects ready to submit for funding. Additionally, having the plan in place with network plans for each area allows the council to be in a much better position to request S106 funding from developers towards new coherent infrastructure.
